Audio passthru with Kodi is tricky - it depends on the actual device.

ok for most small files; most cannot handle the biggest files well.

other free or generic play apps like MX or VLC also can't do well for complex files.


if u r more of a playback person like me, it is better to pay a bit more, go for those box players having proprietory playback app.

e,g, Zidoo, Dune, Egreat - they can handle almost anything video and audio for playback.
